10 Things I've Learned About People After 10 Years as a Personal Trainer

Episode Summary

After 10 years as a personal trainer and fitness coach, I've learned that helping people get fitter, stronger and healthier teaches you a lot more than just exercise and nutrition.

Episode Notes

In this episode of The Leo Alves Podcast, I'm sharing 10 observations I've made from a decade of coaching people with different goals, personalities and lifestyles.

I talk motivation, confidence, self-discipline, expectations, personal growth and why understanding the person behind the fitness goal is often just as important as understanding the goal itself.
